Section 1.1
SAS® Enterprise Guide® and the SAS® System
3
Objectives Define the SAS System. Define the relationship between SAS Enterprise Guide
and SAS software.
4
SAS SoftwareSAS is an integrated suite of software products. The functionality of the system is built around four data-driven tasks: data access data management data analysis data presentation.
5
SAS Enterprise Guide and SAS SoftwareYou can use SAS Enterprise Guide to access the power of SAS without learning the SAS programming language.
If you are a SAS programmer, you can useSAS Enterprise Guide to create new code or modify existing programs.
6
SAS Enterprise Guide and SAS SoftwareSAS programmers can also take advantage of SAS Enterprise Guide to share project files with other programmers as well as
nontechnical analysts generate graphs and complex analyses quickly create different output formats using ODS create and modify style sheets using a simple
interface create SQL queries quickly and easily through an
intuitive interface.
7
SAS Enterprise Guide can use the execution power of the server to access data and run SAS processes, and then return the results to your client PC.

ProjectsSAS Enterprise Guide uses projects to organize related data, tasks, code, and results.
To begin work with SAS Enterprise Guide, you create a project add data to the project select tasks to manage, analyze, and report on the
data.
Additionally, you can customize results automate the process.
19
ProjectsThe Project window displays the active project and associated data, code, notes, and results.

Formatting ResultsResults can be formatted as HTML plain text PDF RTF.
You can also insert results into presentation software e-mail, save, or publish results as HTML.
27
Code GenerationAs you build tasks, SAS Enterprise Guide generates SAS code.
28
You can create a process flow to script the execution of projects or elements of projects.
